♣️BOOK TWO OF THE DE LUCA SERIES
? EPISODE EIGHTTEEN
? FREDERICO ?
After my Encounter with Aria at the bathroom ,I got ready and walked Downstairs clad in a Designer suit and Italian shoes.
” Good morning Rick ” Red waved at me and I chuckled.
” Good morning champ …hey Mom I’d see you when I get back ” I said and ki-ssed both side of his cheeks then mom’s forehead.
” Where’s Aria ” mom Asked and I looked at her like she’s hit her head somewhere .
I mean she doesn’t like Aria and she never tried to pretend from day one ,now she was asking after the same Aria .
” She’s upstairs ” I said and left the mansion .
My Entourage was already prepared to take me to the office .
” Good morning Boss ” they greeted as they led me into the car .
My phone pinged with messages and I leaned on the chair as they drove off .
” Good morning Mr De Luca ” my a-ssistant greeted and we went ahead with the business for the day .
” Boss your Brother has asked to meet up for lunch at one his mansions ” she said immediately she walked into my office.
Only one of my brothers had the Audacity to crash my schedule like that ,it was definitely The Don.
” Fine cancel my other meetings and take the day off ” i said and she smiled.
” Thanks sir ” she said and I just ignored her as she walked out of the room .
My mind went back to my feisty wife and I smiled …she’s stubborn and Rebellious but I wasn’t worried because I loved every bit of it …
Soon very soon I’d tame her ….make her submissive ….make her want nothing else but Me .
I had some Docu-ments to work on ,then I and my team visited an orphanage before I told the driver to drop me off At Ma-ssimo’s Mansion .
Immediately I got in ,the ti-ght Security made way for me .
” You’re welcome Boss …” One of the guards said and opened the door .
” You’re late ” I heard his Authoritative voice and I walked in .
” Was busy with something ” i said and he looked from me then back to the tapping his fingers on the table .
” So ..let’s talk about the De Nero’s ” he said as he Dropped a file in front of me .
Kristov just sat on the opposite end , he looked worried about something as he shifted his collar.
He looked stressed but still handsome.
Sergio on the other hand was busy with his laptop whilst Emelio looked uninterested with everything happening as usual .
Dimitri on the other hand was ready give advice as the family lawyer .
” Why exactly are we even having this meeting about the De Nero’s ? Wasn’t his marriage with the Veronica girl called off ? Kristov asked confused .
” It was called off but they had their Ulterior motives and we would be big fools if we let things happen like the time of the Balandin’s ” Ma-ssimo said and that only made us more curious.
” What do you have about the De Nero’s ? He asked Sergio who turned his laptop over to us .
” They want want a share of our families fortune , especially throu-ghFrederico …. and they had a mole in the mafia before all of this , infact they’ve been benefitting from us …..” He said and I frowned .
” How’s that even possible we have all the accounts locked we ….” Emelio trailed.
” Dad gave his account Details to Lina , the bi-tch wasn’t just a poor mistress she was Rich too , she didn’t leave the Deluca estate because she was a mole not just to the De Nero’s but to the Balandin’s too , She wanted to bring us down at all cost ” Ma-ssimo said and I ran my fingers in my hair in shock .
And to think we loved and cared for that woman , she was nothing but a lieing and backstabbing bi-tch .
We gave her the respect of a mother because she practically raised us , too bad she hated us from the bott-om of her heart .
” She was paying the De Nero’s a specific amount of money and when they stopped recieving it after her death they showed up with an Alliance between you and their daughter Veronica ….” He explained further.
” Smart plan ….” Kristov said with a chuckle.
” Too bad you fu-cked her ” Emelio said to which the others laughed except Ma-ssimo of course .
” Wait you fu-cked that Veronica girl ? What where you even thinking Frederico ! He scolded
” Calm down big bro it was even a Bad fu-ck , plus she’s can’t even bore children so in case she tries to pull a fast one on me it wouldn’t work ” I said and they looked at me like I’ve lost it .
” What do you mean by she can’t bore children ?Kris asked .
” You think you’re the only ones who do research ,? I have my own team you know . Veronica tried getting rid of a pregnancy during highschool and the incidence that nearly cost her life ended up taking her ability to bore children .
” So you fu-cked her without conscience ? You need …. Holy water Frederico …. ” He trailed and as we laugh one glare from Ma-ssimo had everyone Quiet .
” Stay away from that Veronica if you want to keep your marriage don’t be stupid ! He snapped and my jaws literally dropped .
I can’t believe he cares about my marriage when he hardly shows us how much he cares .
Grace is the only one that brings the good side of him .
Aside that he’s the ruthless powerful emotionless Don of the Italian family.
His phone rang and he looked at us .
” I need to leave ” he said as he stood up .
” What do you mean ? I asked and he looked at me.
” Grace …she’s with the midwives” he said and we didn’t need further information to know our brothers kids where on their way .

?ARIA ?
After Frederico left the house , I couldn’t come out of the room just yet but I needed to see my son so I came downstairs .
” Good morning ma ” I greeted his mom and she looked at me .
” Good morning Aria sit down ” she said and I sat down nervously ,my eyes scanned the room for my son.
” He’s With his tutor , his home schooling starts from today ” she said and Although I wasn’t happy I let it be .
” You don’t look happy ” she said and I opened and closed my mouth back .
” Im not …..I’m not happy ma’am , I know you don’t like me but I just can’t get used to this life anytime soon I’m sorry” I said and she smiled .
” I un-derstand and although i hate you , for the disgrace you put this family throu-ghin the past , you are now Frederico’s wife and the mother to my grandson Red ,I’m Willing to be civil with you for that reason” she said like it wasn’t bad .
Did she just tell me she hated me to my face .
This woman is something else .
” I’d just go check on Grace ” she said and escused me .
I sat down nervously and not too long a beautiful girl catwalked in throu-ghthe door .
” Good morning people ….” She was saying and stopped when her eyes met mine .
She looked around my age .
” Oh …..Wow who do we have here , my cousins new wife ? What made you change your mind Arianna ? Finally saw you can’t find a better man ? She asked rudely and I felt bad immediately .
” Or ….you finally decided your child needed his father too ? Wait is it because you knew he was ten times richer” She asked mockingly and I looked at her .
” Don’t you dare talk to me the way you please I might not have it all but I’m not a gold digger at least not with your Dirty money ” i spat angrily and she laughed .
” At least I know you’re fit for the girls team , by the way I’m Yvonne Frederico’s se-xy cousin and Grace’s bestfriend” she said and I looked at her suprised ..
” You don’t ….mean ? I trailed.
” Hey I might look grumpy sometimes but trust me , I have no ha-rd feelings …nice hair ” she said and I smiled.
” Thanks” I said and she just chuckled.
” Ahhhhh ! We heard from the stairs and looked up to see Fred’s mom with Grace who seemed to be in pain .
” Get the midwives she’s about to give birth ” she said and the whole mansion became busy as everyone ran Helter skelter trying to get her ready to welcome the Don’s heirs.
My mind went back to time I had Red and the amount of pain I went throu-ghthat day .
The most painful part was I had no one to help ,no family member to take me to the hospital ….
I stopped my trail of thoughts as I silently prayed for Grace to deliver safely.
Everyone was worried sick because she had a really painful labour .
The Deluca Brothers arrived and the Don Went in to be by her side .
Not too long she gave birth we heard the cry of the twins .
According to the midwives one was weak and the other was strong …they had both of them medication and it was really a tough evening for the family .
The First was Called Aldo De Luca and the other Axel De LUCA .
Red was really excited about the boys and i was glad they had no issues at the end of the day .
I saw Red to his room after dinner and tucked him to sleep with a bed time story immediately he slept I turned to see Frederico standing besides me .
” Good evening ” I said and he walked over to Red and ki-ssed his cheek.
” C’mon it’s late ” he said and I looked at my feet as we left the room together .
Where’s my phone ? I asked immediately I noticed it wasn’t on the table where I kept it .
” I changed it …” He said and my eyes met with the carton of the latest iPhone.
” I want my old phone back Fred ,I don’t want you spoiling me with gifts ” i said and tried walking pa-ssed him but he pulled me and I sat on the bed with a thud .
“Don’t start with me Aria …you’re my wife now and I have every right to do what I want with my wife …” He said and I scoffed .
” Thank God you said it yourself ,your wife and not your slave …” I said and he ran his fingers in his hair .
” What do you want ? He snapped and i stared at him .
” I’ve never wanted your money from the start Frederico ….when I loved you I fell for you ….! ” I said and he scoffed .
” This is the me …Aria with the flaws and all ,I dare you to love this me ….that’s when I’d see the love ” he said and tears rolled outta my eyes .
He ki-ssed my lower li-p and I just cried into his li-ps .
Why Does it still hurt so much ?
Why can’t I get over my fears and accept him for who he is ?
